Just watch Episode One on repeat for 24 hrs. Afterwards, see a medical professional.
IV, V, I, II, III, VI
Nowadays I just stick with the original trilogy.
probably just watch the og non-special edition trilogy.
I just do IV, V, and VI
But supposedly people really recommend IV, V, II, III, and VI and to just completely throw I away.
This.
But if you do watch the prequels it is perfectly acceptable to ignore episode I since nothing that happens in it is overly important to anything that happens after, I trout you not. But you'll also avoid a lot of bad cgi and plot holes of you don't watch the prequels at all.
Chronological. That way,the movies get better and better the more tired of watching Starwars you get. Watching the best stuff first, then the prequels, I would eventually just go "uuurgh smurf this trout, i'll go do something else, they're not that good anyway"
Am I the only one who thought that Phantom Menace was the best of the prequel films? Jar Jar Binks is one of the most annoying characters ever, but I just blank him. Attack had that tedious, overwrought and stupidly angsty romance plot, and Revenge upped the angst to an even more unbearable level.
IV - V - VI - The Podrace from I - II - III
Honestly Phantom Menace becomes a lot more watchable if you track down and watch a fan cut called The Phantom Edit, which gets rid of a lot of the Jar Jar and some of the other worst bits of nonsense.
I'm an advocate of always watching/reading/playing the thing in the order that it came out, even if the author says another order is optimal. So IV - V - VI - I - II - III. Same goes for Kingdom Hearts and the Chronicles of Narnia ;)
IV, V, II, III, VI
Just don't even bother with Phantom Menace.
I agree that it's actually the best of them, mostly because the directing and effects are the least awful of them all. But as far as how relevant the movies are to things that happen after them, there's pretty much nothing that happens in it that's important to future movies.
Just end with VI in regardless of the sequence. Dun venture into IX. :(
